Exhibition - Barbie Perry: Hope Chest

Contemporary Art Center
305 SouthWest Water Street
Doilies were once passed on to daughters, cradled in a hope chest while awaiting fulfillment of love and prosperity within the confines of marriage. In this installation, Barbie Perry employs doilies as mandalas encouraging women to contemplate the dissonance of their hope and suppression throughout history and to celebrate the limitless potential of their spirits.
